Ownage

Because when you're nation's government sucks to the point that a mere website can block them...

Wiki-pwn-edia... Wiki-pwen-edia... Wiki--aw, forget it.

Wait, so Wikipedia somehow block the actual justice department website? Or was it just the Wiki about them? 'Cause I could understand the latter.

I liked how the article had a quote from a "Wikipedia editor." Heck, I'm a Wikipedia editor.

I should put that on my business card.

That's like...wow. I mean, the only thing you can compare this to is like the U.S. Department of Justice getting blocked by Wikipedia. It's in its own league.

Why?  The government doesn't own Wikipedia.  The people do.  What do you call the Presidential candidate that doesn't win, if not "blocked"?

I guess what I'm saying is that the really sad thing is that we expect the government to have authority over everything on the internet.

Although I will admit it was hilarious.

Proof that the government is slowly collapsing.
The Web-Bot Project predicted the demise of the United States sometime in 2009.

I wouldn't cite this as evidence that the government is collapsing. Wikipedia does not belong to the United States government any more than TMK does. In fact, the English Wikipedia is more controlled by Europe... Check this out... But our government thinks they can do whatever they want. The Internet is its own world, which will not succumb to imperialism.

I'm going overboard here. :P

But our government thinks they can do whatever they want.

Which is why our government is collapsing.

I think the government has a little longer than a year. Barring any drastic measures by the Federal Reserve, World Bank, and Trilateral Commission, of course. And the reptilians.

Yes. It's this macro my brother made that was lying around. Well, actually, he didn't intend for it to be a macro, but...
